Portable Computer

Is there a bluetooth or infrared keyboard that can be used with the video out cable and the Pro to create a portable computer?

Re: Portable Computer

Hi I have found one of these Stowaway Ultraslim Keyboards and have installed the Driver that was on the CD for the WM 5 PPC on my VZ Touch Pro. The setup screen says that the bluetooth system was not found or not installed. All other bluetooth devices work fine. Is there something I am doing wrong or do I need a better driver. Can anyone attach a driver for this keyboard that works with the Touch Pro?
thanks
Frank

Try just using the bluetooth drivers on the phone already and see if it works.
Failing that, go to the manufacturer's website and download the update that works with your operating system/phone model.

Correct. Pretty much eliminates the need for a laptop...
